West Bromwich Albion FC / What would you do? If you were Val.
« on: January 31, 2022, 02:14:14 PM »
Forget the in or out debate for a bit and try a different tack.
We have some very intelligent, articulate and committed posters on here, all with differing opinions, so, assuming Val is here till the end of the season, what would you do if you were him?
Here's my thoughts.
1) Get all the players together, including the bomb squad, have a warts an all talk and listen to what they have to say regarding tactics, formation etc.
2) Make training, and everything else, more inclusive, trying different ideas.
3) Go back to basics with regards set pieces etc. but give players license to experiment a bit.
4) Communicate better with the fans, We aren't stupid, if you say one thing and do another, we will see through it. Be more honest and transparent.
5) Don't be scared to try something different.
6) Take responsibility, whatever happens.
Robson somehow fluked a line up and formation that worked in January, despite looking totally abject up to December, so all is not lost. If, both him and the players, can put pride aside, and work together, they may just salvage the season.
